Freight & logistics plays the most important role in carrying out a trade, globally. It is a fast growing and highly competitive industry with several active international and domestic players. Currently, the supply chain management is a complex challenge, due to globalization and the increased consumption of various products. The freight & logistics industry enables product delivery from one point to another with an efficient supply chain network. The goods are transported through various freight management services, such as air, rail, road and waterways. Further, a portion of public spending in the infrastructure development is necessary for every country to improve its transportation networks, which, in turn, is expected to aid the freight & logistics industry of that particular region. For instance, Panama Canal is one of the most important manmade waterways in the world that came into existence in 1914. The canal separates the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean. In addition, this project boosted the international maritime trade, thus, accelerating the freight & logistics industry.

Market Dynamics

The economic growth of any region is expected to boost the freight & logistics market. The growing population and industrialization will drive the freight & logistics market. Furthermore, seaports act as an important node of a distribution network. Lack of the government’s commitment to the development of seaports or road networks, in a region, hinders the growth of the freight & logistics industry, as the efficiency of the product movement is minimized. The reconfigured supply chains, with the growing local production and consumption units, are further expected to restrict the market growth. However, freight & logistics is a huge market where the operators are inculcating new strategies to cut down operational costs and, at the same time tapping on the new approaches such as the adaptation of ICT in their operations, to improve efficiency. This trend is accelerating the market largely.
